Introducing the ONLY training tool built specifically for OC! With nearly 40 years as the industry leader in paddle sport training technology for elite athletes, NK’s SpeedCoach OC 2 will make your boat more informed and cross the finish line faster. Train smarter and improve your performance with one simple tool.

SpeedCoach OC Features:

Programmable Workouts (Training Pack only)

Program up to six workouts right on the unit based on time or distance.

Important note: We have recognized a compatibility issue with El Capitan, Apple’s latest update to OS X, and the LiNK dongle.

NK Paddle Specific Calorie Equation

The SpeedCoach OC uses our paddle specific calorie equation. Most products and apps available use a cycling or running based equation, and no other performance monitor offers an equation based on the precise motions of paddling. The experts at NK have partnered with researchers from the University of Montana to bring paddlers an equation that takes into account three distinct paddling profiles, based on different levels of paddling techniques, and energy expenditure, based on oxygen consumption.

The NK Paddle Specific Calorie equation gives you a real-time accurate answer to the question, "How many calories did I burn during that workout?

Impeller Compatible SpeedCoach Impeller

The SpeedCoach OC is compatible with our SpeedCoach Impeller (sold separately), which will give the paddler a more accurate speed when traveling on moving current. Training with an impeller has been the gold standard for rowing for years, especially teams that train on moving water. Impeller speed measures the movement of the boat relative to the water, while GPS speed measures the movement of the boat relative to the ground. This can be a powerful training tool and a great way to learn more about your paddling. To get started training with an impeller you will need the SpeedCoach Wiring Canoe/Kayak Sensor, Wireless Angle Bracket Mount, and SpeedCoach Impeller. Learn more about Impeller speed versus GPS speed.

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFO

Display updates every 1 second. After exposure to large environmental changes, all sensors require an equilibration period to reach stated accuracy. Measurements employing RH may require longer periods particularly after prolonged exposure to very high or very low humidity.

14° F to 131° F | -10 °C to 55 °C Measurements may be taken beyond the limits of the operational temperature range of the display and batteries by maintaining the unit within the operational range and then exposing it to the more extreme environment for the minimum time n ecessary to take reading.

*Note: Accuracy calculated as uncertainty of the measurement derived from statistical analysis considering the combined effects from primary sensor specifications, circuit conversions, and all other sources of error using a coverage factor of k=2, or two standard deviations (2Ʃ)

**Note: These specifications are valid for all Kestrel 1000, 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500 series with a serial number higher than 2262687. If your product has a lower serial number, please reference the K4000 specifications 329011.

Airflow of 2.2 mph|1 m/s or greater provides fastest response and reduction of insolation effect. For greatest accuracy, avoid direct sunlight on the temperature sensor and prolonged sunlight exposure to the unit in low airflow conditions.Calibration drift is negligible for the life of the product. For further details, see Display & Battery Operational Temperature Limits.

To achieve stated accuracy, unit must be permitted to equilibrate to external temperature when exposed to large, rapid temperature changes and be kept out of direct sunlight. Calibration drift is typically less than ±0.25% per year.

Monolithic silicon piezo-resistive pressure sensor with second-order temperature correction. Between 1100–1600 mbar, unit will operate with reduced accuracy. Sensor may not operate above 1600 mbar and can be damaged above 6,000 mbar or below 10 mbar. Calibration drift is negligible for the life of the product.

2-axis solid-state magneto-resistive sensor mounted perpendicular to unit plane. Accuracy of sensor dependent upon unit’s vertical position. Self-calibration routine eliminates magnetic error from batteries or unit and must be run after every full power- down (battery removal or change). Readout indicates direction to which the back of the unit is pointed when held in a vertical orientation. Declination/variation adjustable for True North readout.

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFO

Display updates every 1 second. After exposure to large environmental changes, all sensors require an equilibration period to reach stated accuracy. Measurements employing RH may require longer periods particularly after prolonged exposure to very high or very low humidity. WBGT requires about 8 minutes to reach 95% accuracy and about 15 minutes to reach 99% accuracy after exposure to large environmental changes.

Data Storage & Graphical display, Min/Max/Avg History

Logged history stored and displayed for every measured value. Manual and auto data storage. Min/Max/Avg history may be reset independently. Auto-store interval settable from 2 seconds to 12 hours*, overwrite on or off. Logs even when display off except for 2 and 5 second intervals. Kestrel 5 series units hold over 10,000 data points.
